YOUNG PRESIDENTS’ ORGANIZATION Comprised of more than 20,000 leaders in 123 different countries, YPO-WPO is the world’s largest network of peers that connects members to exchange ideas, pursue learning and share strategies to achieve personal growth and professional success. Since 1950, YPO has transcended geographic and cultural barriers to inspire members, promote lifelong learning and address the challenges leaders face every day. Our Mission YPO’s core mission is to develop “Better Leaders Through Education and Idea Exchange.” The Power of Peers No other leadership organization screens its applicants as closely as YPO, because true peer-based learning is the foundation of the YPO mission and experience. YPOers learn from their peers; they exchange ideas, ask for advice, and share best practices in an open and trusting way. CEOs have access to a lot of information and to smart subordinates yet to few peers who are walking in similar shoes. YPO’s strength is a membership of qualified peers eager to learn and interact and grow as leaders.
